Biography
Isaac Steiner was born in 1914 in New York City to a Jewish-American family, and became a professor at New York University, specializing in philosophy. Steiner befriended his student Stan Potolsky after he made great breakthroughs in science, and he decided to help Potolsky in stopping the WellZyn company from distributing "Venom" chemical weapons to US Army soldiers, as they would cause the soldiers to become too strong and destroy the world. Steiner and Potolsky collaborated in 1984, planning to inject the drug-addicted poor of New York with Venom-like "Viper" drugs in order to cause rampage, forcing WellZyn to stop producing Venom and stop their pharmaceutical weapons business. The New York Police Department eventually caught wind of the plans of Steiner after seeing him in a photograph with Potolsky, and when the officers found out about the conspiracy, Steiner injected himself with the drug to make himself stronger. He attacked one officer, but he was shot twice in the chest to prevent him from killing the officer. Shortly after, Potolsky killed himself after a failed attempt to kill WellZyn people with Viper.
